0.5mm HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) plastic sheet rolls are commonly used for thermoforming, packaging, signage, and various industrial applications due to their durability, impact resistance, and ease of fabrication.
Key Features of 0.5mm HIPS Sheet Rolls
Thickness: 0.5mm (500 microns / ~20 mils)
Material: High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS) – a modified form of polystyrene with added rubber for improved toughness.
Flexibility: Semi-rigid but can be rolled for storage and transport.
Surface Finish: Typically comes in a matte or glossy finish.
Color Options: Commonly available in white, black, and clear (translucent), but custom colors may be available.
Modified with rubber additives for superior toughness compared to standard polystyrene (PS), reducing brittleness and cracking.
Low density makes it easy to transport, cut, and thermoform without specialized equipment.
Heats evenly and molds easily into complex shapes (e.g., packaging trays, clamshells) with minimal energy consumption.
More affordable than ABS, PETG, or PVC while offering a balance of strength and flexibility.
Accepts screen printing, digital printing, and coatings for branding or decorative purposes.
FDA-compliant grades available for food packaging, disposable containers, and medical applications.
Resists water, oils, and dilute acids, suitable for short-term exposure in industrial or consumer packaging.
Can be die-cut, laser-cut, or routed cleanly without splintering.
Widely recycled HIPS plastic rolls in industrial streams, supporting sustainability efforts.
Available in glossy, matte, or textured surfaces to meet aesthetic or functional needs.
0.5mm thick HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) plastic sheet rolls are used to package a variety of products due to their durability, impact resistance and easy formability. Here are some common applications in English:
1. Blister packaging: For small consumer goods, electronics, pharmaceuticals and hardware products.
2. Clamshell packaging: For food, toys, cosmetics and retail products.
3. Trays and liners: For organizing and protecting boxed items (e.g. electronics, medical devices).
4. Protective sleeve packaging: For covering fragile items such as glass, ceramics or printed packaging.
5. Food containers: Takeaway boxes, baking trays and disposable dinner plates (if food grade certified).
6. Industrial packaging: For cushioning and protecting mechanical parts or automotive component packaging.
7. Stationery boxes and gift boxes: For rigid boxes or protective liners.

Here’s a simplified production process for 0.5mm HIPS plastic sheet rolls:
1. Raw Material Mixing
HIPS resin pellets + additives (colorants, stabilizers) are blended.
2. Extrusion
The mixture is melted and pressed through a flat-die extruder to form a continuous plastic sheet.
3. Cooling & Calendering
The hot sheet passes through chilled rollers to achieve uniform 0.5mm thickness and smoothness.
4. Trimming & Winding
Edges are trimmed, and the sheet is wound into large rolls for storage/shipping.
